So Many Sheep

Classes were relatively uneventful after our weekend in Scotland. I did go see an amazing play for my Contemporary British Theatre class called "Midsummer," it is not based on Shakespeare's play but it is an excellent, excellent production put up by the Tricycle Theatre. What was most impressive about the show is that two actors played every part, sang and played guitar. So much talent on that stage.

Last Saturday was quite jammed pack! Our program arranged a trip for anyone interested to visit Stonehenge and Baths. So, we woke up bright and early to get on an 8am bus to Stonehenge. We arrived there around 9:30am and it was freezing out! Stonehenge is something I've always wanted to see so I'm happy I had the chance, plus our guide gave us some interesting background to what archeologists know and still don't know about the place.

 One of the most exciting parts of Stonehenge was all of the sheep wandering around. They were blocked off by a fence but there were sheep everyone!!

After an hour at Stonehenge we continued along our way to Baths where the Roman Baths are. It is such a cute town. After a short bus tour through the city we were dropped off at the Roman Baths museum where we toured through. Here are some pictures below!

At the end we were able sample a glass of the water. It was warm and tasted like minerals. Interesting...

After the museum we had a couple of hours to wander the city and grab lunch. However, at 1:30 on a bright Saturday all the pubs and cafes were packed with people. It didn't help that there was a football match on so everyone was watching that. However, on our adventure for food we got to see a good portion of the city.

Finally, we got on the bus and made our way back to London after an exhausting, yet wonderful day trip.
